UREC Facility Rentals and Reservations

UREC is a state-of-the-art recreation facility located in the heart of JMU's campus and the Shenandoah Valley. With over 140,000 square feet of recreation space, UREC can host a variety of events including but not limited to team practices, tournaments, after-Prom activities, birthday parties, company and organization retreats, climbing wall group outings, swim practices and meeting spaces.

AvailabilityAll rental requests for group use of facilities are considered on an individual basis. Exclusive reservations of spaces are scheduled primarily during times of low membership usage or outside normal hours of operation. University break periods are often a great time to utilize the facilities because usage is lower - these breaks include Thanksgiving Break, Winter Break, Spring Break, May Session Break, and Summer Break.
